In a tweet, President Trump said former judge Roy Moore could not win the general election. He was prophetic. Trump originally backed Luther Strange. When Moore beat Strange in the primary, Trump had few options without violating Ronald Reagan's 11th Commandment: "Thou shalt not speak ill of a fellow Republican," which RINOs (Republican In Name Only) Democrat defector Alabama Senator Richard Shelby and Mitch McConnell conveniently forgot.

Moore carried the insurmountable baggage of being "guilty until proven innocent." Convicted in the court of public opinion. Guilty of a 40-year-old sudden flashback of an alleged victim's refreshed memory and righteous qualm of conscience.

More than the estimated 25 percent of the Alabama electorate voted. Jones and Moore basically split the vote; 12 1/2 percent does not give Jones a mandate for a two-year senatorial term in a solid red state. A Democrat middle class tsunami? Not so fast.

The Jones win greatly diminishes the Democrats' ability to paint Trump with Moore's sexual innuendo brush, especially after they just sacrificed Franken and Conyers on the purity altar of Caesar's wife.
